PART 91--CONSOLIDATED SUBMISSIONS FOR COMMUNITY PLANNING AND DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMS--Table of Contents
 
                  Subpart F--Other General Requirements
 
Sec. 91.505  Amendments to the consolidated plan.

    (a) Amendments to the plan. The jurisdiction shall amend its 
approved plan whenever it makes one of the following decisions:
    (1) To make a change in its allocation priorities or a change in the 
method of distribution of funds;
    (2) To carry out an activity, using funds from any program covered 
by the consolidated plan (including program income), not previously 
described in the action plan; or
    (3) To change the purpose, scope, location, or beneficiaries of an 
activity.
    (b) Criteria for substantial amendment. The jurisdiction shall 
identify in its citizen participation plan the criteria it will use for 
determining what constitutes a substantial amendment. It is these 
substantial amendments that are subject to a citizen participation 
process, in accordance with the jurisdiction's citizen participation 
plan. (See Secs. 91.105 and 91.115.)
    (c) Submission to HUD. (1) Upon completion, the jurisdiction must 
make the amendment public and must notify HUD that an amendment has been 
made. The jurisdiction may submit a copy of each amendment to HUD as it 
occurs, or at the end of the program year. Letters transmitting copies 
of amendments must be signed by the official representative of the 
jurisdiction authorized to take such action.
    (2) See subpart B of this part for the public notice procedures 
applicable to substantial amendments. For any amendment affecting the 
HOPWA program that would involve acquisition, rehabilitation, 
conversion, lease, repair or construction of properties to provide 
housing, an environmental review of the revised proposed use of funds 
must be completed by HUD in accordance with 24 CFR 574.510.
